J I lay in a supply of those things of
, which they stand in need. Gendarmes
in considerate number keep order and
these, in khaki uniforms, lend what
1 1 little of the Occident there may be
to the scene.
The men generally wear clothes
made of a coarse whitj, bagging-like
material, sometimes wearing a coat
cut Ike the old fashioned box over
coats, or simply a tunic resembling
a shirt and belted in at the waist.
On their feet are sandals made o
bark- lining very crudely woven, while
ubout their legs are rags of teh same
material as their other garments,
bound ore by strings which criss-cross
up from the sandals, which in reality
they tied., to the feet. Occassionally
some man has a coat made of white
felt, like the coarse, pliable felt used
for linings. Hats of this material are
seen but caps are the principal form
of headgear for males.
The women move about like rain
bows. Their dresses are all the colors
and shades imaginable, like gypsies
in a musical comedy. No such thing as
a hat or bonnet is ever seen here, in
the market Some wear shawls the
like of which Ellis Island, off New
York, has seen many, some wear hand
erehiefs of vivid pattern while still
others wear a sort of turban made of
a special shawl, or large handerchief,
and skillfully bound about the head.
Some of the women are barefooted,
similar to those adoirted by the man.

their arms, or trays supported, Yd

One can buy almost anything here.
As I strolled down the center of the
thoroughfare I noted bread, white and

dried appes.of a string; cucumbers,

Archibold Hopper's fear that the
boll weevil would ruin the cotton crop
cf his plantation cost him $25,000 to
day. Last night he closed the deal
whereby the plantation was sold for
that amount in cash. He took tho
money home and placed it under his
pillow. Today the money is gone and
Hopper still is suffering from the ef
fects of a drug, given him by the robber.

BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
(United Press Staff Correspondent)
Imperial Headquarters, Russian Ar
my, Oct. 5. (By Mail.) Sunday at
tho Stnvka, or Grand General Head
quarters, would make iho most keenly
imaginative man in the world forget
there was ever such a thing as war
even if he had not done so already in
this quietest and most peaceful of
towns.
Sunday our Sunday is Monday
here, and market day. Our Saturday
is their Sunday. All Saturday you
have luiud the rapid peal of bells
chiming in several keys from calci
mined towers flecked with resting
crows, and have attended the most
beautiful religious services in the
world where boy-choirs on opposing
sides of the high altar chanted the
gorgeous ceremonies.
So today business is going full blast
and the wonderful open air markets
near the water tower are packed with
its people as curiously mixed, as the
wares one finds on sale. The tone is
numerous to mention further.
There were many children around.
They. sat with their mothers looking
idly on, played with their strange
dolls, ate black bread and drank kvass
as suited them, the boys dodging in
and out playing games and teasing the
litle girls as do boys the world over.
It would seem, almost, as if tho
world had gotten used to its war and
forgotten it entirely.
An Old Man's Stomach.
As we grow older and less active,
less and less food is required to meet
the demands of our bodies. If too
much is habitually taken, the stomach
will rebel. When a man reaches the
advanced age of 85 or 90, you will
find that he is a light eater. Be as
careful as you will, however, you will
occasionally eat more than you should
and will feel the need of Chamber
lain's Tablets to correct the disorder.
These tablets do not contain pepsin,
but strengthen the stomach and en
able it to perform its functions natur
ally. They also cause a gentle move
ment of the bowels. Adv.
Worms Sap Your Child's Strength
Is your child pale .and fretful
Does he cry out in sleep or grind his i

worms and you should obtain relief '
at once. Kickapoo Worm Killer is a

and by its mildly laxative quality ex
pels it from the system. Worms Bap

Certain Cure for Croup.
Mrs. Rose Middleton, of Greenville,
111., has had experience in the treat
ment of this disease. She says, "When
my children were small my son had
croup frequently. Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy always broke up these
attacks immediately, and I was never
without it in the house. I have taken
it myself for coughs and colds with
good results." Adv.
